摘要 |
Embodiments of the present invention are directed an electrochemical energy storage device, such as a cell or a battery, that includes segmented stackable bus bars for stacking electrodes, the bus bar segments extending a substantial length of an edge of the electrodes to provide proper inter-electrode spacing, substantially uniform electrochemical potential and current density between electrodes, efficient internal heat dissipation and desired electrode structural rigidity, and, optionally, a compression member, separate from the case, to compress the stacked electrodes. |
